Ghana

[Booty Duty]

Hello everybody,

I´m planning on travelling through Ghana in February and I was wondering if anybody can recommend a clean hotel that won´t harm my budget too much (Accra region). The hotel should have a safe for my private stuff etc.

It seems that taking pictures of girls is not very well accepted by them, since I am a hobby-photographer I find this a bit sad (or why are there so few pics of ghanaian-girls posted?).

How would the experts compare the local girls to those of neighbouring countries?

Reports / tips / pics and travel-links are very much appreciated!

About gifts: When I go to Accra I usually bring with me some old mobile phone (GSM). They'll be happy.

To DDW, concerning gifts :

You may find me cynical but, from long practice in Ivory Coast (eastern part of it), my impression is that the most valued present in the area is just plain cash.

Perfumes (esp. French) are also appreciated, but make a distant number two after dollars.

Hi all,

Thanks for some great posts. I am visiting Accra in January and have made contact with some ladies I intend too see. I'd like to give them a gift, but would appreciate any guidance you may give on appropriate amounts?

Thanks

Dear Booty Duty:

I've visited Accra regularly since the mid-1970's. Saw your request/post and thought I'd throw in my two cents.

Almost every hotel in Accra is girl-friendly. Some of the higher-class hotels might ask that the girl leave her ID at the front desk, but that's for your protection - in case you get ripped off by the girl, call down to the front desk and they'll refuse to give her back her ID.

It's as easy to find non-pros as it is to find pros who will want to come back to your room with you. Assume that almost every single girl is available, unless they show no interest in you. Many of the girls in the beer gardens and night clubs are not hookers, but regular girls out for the evening who are hoping to find a guy that night. They not only will want to spend the night with you, but will also want to see you the next evening, maybe become your girlfriend.

Also, while they're not hookers, if you invite them back to your hotel for the night, it is customary to give them some cash in the morning for "a taxi ride home" or "to buy new shoes" or whatever.

And yes, girls in Ghana and all of West Africa are much more open about their sexuality, no hangups like in the U.S. Sex is no big deal, it's seen as normal that a guy visiting town would want female companionship for the night. Any of your Ghanaian male friends would probably be happy to fix you up with one of their female friends/acquaintances/neighbors etc. - in fact if you look like you're "looking" they may even fix you up with someone with you asking.

BBBJ can be very common. But I found anal to be very rare except among the really hardcore hookers, it's just not something most African women do (but yes, some will).

Finally, always always always USE A CONDOM! and bring your own supply with you, don't rely on buying the locally-available varieties.

@ alistedmale,

I really enjoyed reading your posts. What about hotels in Accra, - do they all allow you to bring in guests (and recommendations)?

Apart from the dating-girls, did you ever bring non-pros from the street / stores / hotel staff back to your room ?

Apparently the girls didn´t mind having pictures taken. Are ladies in ghana really very open about their sexuality ( sexual activities like bbj and anal quiet common ) ?

Thanks for the extremely appreciated info.

P.S. Will you be going back to Ghana in the future or are you planning on new destinations ?

There are not many Americans in Ghana. I met only 3 the entire time I was there. Accra is very safe, I never felt or sensed danger at anytime. I was on a first name basis with the club bouncers within 3 days and they watched for my (girlfriends ) as I worked the floor in the various clubs. You will love it there!
As far as who the women want? Anyone white, with a job that will hopefully love them and marry them. That's pretty much the formula. Have fun, here is Isabelle.

alistedmale,

Thanks for your report on Ghana. I plan to visit in 4/04. I joined the afrointroductions site & there are lots of eager women there. Is Ghana safe for a white American? Will the girls from the website come right to your hotel like Isabelle? Are most all girls available if you are nice & pleasant & clean cut? Please tell more about your travels in Africa & the beautiful women there. Your picture was great & I hope to be able to contribute for others benefit as you have done for us.

My fourth trip to Africa was relatively uneventful as far as anything unusual with the exception of the airlines I chose to use. I live in south Florida. I used GHANA AIRWAYS this time for my flight to Accra. A warning to all,this is the WORST airline I have ever flown. Terrible service, never on time,they do not contact you with changes, this airline is extremley labor intensive!
I arrived in Accra at 5:00 a.m. Saturday morning, the airport itself is ok and a taxi to Paloma Hotel & Suites was 10.U.S. Upon arrival at Paloma I whipped out some telephone numbers I had recieved via email from this Afrointroductions website. I like to have these whenever I travel for some quick action!
After 10 minutes, I was talking to Isabelle who was in Accra from Cameroon. 22 years old,tiny, with a beautiful body. She came right over gave me a complete BBJ without spilling a drop. I gave her a cheap pair of sunglasses as a "gift" and she was very happy with that. Her mother called wanting assistance to a doctor in Tema so after" the deed", she left telling me she would call later.
Champs is the hotel bar and the place to be on Fridays only. I got some rest, called another girl named Daimon,cleaned up and headed downstairs to check out the action at Champs.
There was a nice looking Somali girl at the bar willing to whatever, I ordered a drink, felt up the Somali while waiting for Daimon to arrive. There is a beer here called STAR, cost is 12000. pretty good beer. 1 U.S. dollar is 8700. Africa is amazing, the best bodies and if you are white, all is free! All women are basically available. Some require more time than others.
Daimon showed at 8:00 p.m. and WOW!! Long smooth hair, 5'10"36c on top and everything was perfect!
I quickly dumped the Somali and Daimon and I chatted a few minutes. I explained that I wanted to see Macumba and she said 10:30 or 11:00 would be the best time.
Stopped at a place just outside Macumba called California. This place has outside seating where you can have some beer, they have Kabobs etc., this place turned out to be an excellent warm up spot for me each night. You can snack,drink and watch pussy,(Alistedmales 3 favorite things. !)I watched Macumba load and entered about 11:30.There is a cover charge,10 or 15000,very dark in the entrance as you go up the stairs there are 2 bars. The women here are all pros and semi-pro. They are probably the best looking per capita in Accra. The price? Whatever the market will bear that day!!! I mean, variables depend on what you look like, what she looks like, as I said earlier, even the pros I found in Africa are free if you are white and work the deal right. Some will be happy just to stay at the hotel with you.
Leaving Macumba about 2:30 I was anxious to get a closer look at Daimons jewels. At the hotel,she sat on the bed, I was standing still with the pants half down, she gave me a bbj as she was pulling my pants down further we finshed in the bed. I would wake up every 2 or 3 hours and we would go at it in all positions.
African women are very acommodating.
In the morning/afternoon I recieved a call from the front desk telling me 2 girls,Isabelle the cameroon girl was in the lobby with a girlfriend! As it turned out I had this situation more than twice later in the week. I talked to Isabelle,Daimon was dead asleep, and asked her to come back at 3 with her friend .She agreed and wanted to know if I had found a girlfriend in Accra. I sayed no and she told me that she and her girlfriend wanted to come back,I agreed.I had the free breakfast the hotel offers and Daimon left asking what time should she return. I asked her to call me first around 5.
Isabelle did not show at 3 which was expected as Africans are never on time and frequently you can expect a 1 to 2 hour time warp from what is promised. Angry at myself for the missed opportunity earlier with Isabelle and friend.
I knew tonight was Waikiki night and I looked forward to that.

Unlike other destinations, you should take with you $100 dollar bills. That is the only note you can exchange in most places. In return, they will give you a large stack of cidis in small denominations. Not so easy to hide on yourself. I would compare it to carrying around $150 - $200 in singles. All my notes I carried in smaller denominations such as 1, 5, 10, 20 was useless.

For my first time in Africa, I went to Ghana July 1 through July 10.

Before my trip, I went to a Travel Clinic and took on every vaccination and every medication that was recommendated to me. I made reservations for the Poloma hotel and arranged for the hotel to pick me up at the Accra airport. After I arrived, I went downstairs to Champs Bar located in the same Poloma complex. The Canadian owner, his most beautiful Liberian wife, and a retired Englishman were sitting at the bar. I sat down and struck up a conversation and got some in-country advice. Accra is not a party town and I might get bored after a few times around the circut. Champs is the place to go Fridays, Macumba and Waikiki have the largest selection after midnight.

Shortly after I arrived, I became sick but, was able treat myself without loosing much of my trip. While I was sick, the hotel introduced me to a young nurse named Anita. Within 2hr, she was on top of me giving a passionate, wet, fuck. I spent 4 days with her.

Since I wasn't feeling well until day 4, I tried to arrange to take a trip up the Volta River. I asked around and was introduced to an American who has lived in Ghana for 30 years. His name is Jud and I should have trusted my instincs when I noted to myself that he did not seem to have income from any normal source. His brochure had trip prices and he sold me a Volta trip for $140 for Anita and me. Keep in mind, this is a large sum of money in Ghana. For example, I did not watch my spending at all, however, I only spent $300 cash in 10 days. Jud asked me to go out that night and he would drive his own (piece of shit) car. Jud, Anita, and I went bar hopping until he abruptly wanted to sop when he picked up a hooker for himself. Later that evening, after he and his date finished eating inner, he immediately left, sticking me with his bill. Anita and I decided to go back to Champs. One method to save money and reduce my worries is to have my date keep the money I planned on spending that evening. When payment was needed, she would pay, being familiar with her currency. We really was mad at ourselves when Anita explained to me that everytime I disappeared from her site, Jud would tell her that I told him to tell Anita to pay for his and his girl's drinks. I suspect I paid for his hooker also. The next morning, Jud's assistant came by my hotel room with a brochure showing modified prices for Volta asking for an additional $60. I iknew that if I went with Jud on that trip, there would be hidden fantom charges throughout the entire trip. I told her no. I was well enough to travel and decided to cut my losses and get out of Accra.

Anita took me to the STC bus station and rsadly left me. There, I saw knock out beautiful woman. I waited for a long time getting my courage then, aAs she was boarding her bus, I approached her and got her name and number. Her name was Francesca and was taking an earlier bus to Takoradi so, I told her I would call her when I arrived 1 hr after. After leaving her, I noticed all the good looking women at the station surrounded Francesca and buzzed and laughed. I could actually see that some were even mad with jeolousy. I'm 40 and these ladies were early 2os and very good looking. I took the bus to Takoradi with the intention of stopping at Cape Coast. The price was @ $4. for the rough 4 hr bus ride. Cape Coast seemed small and I had Francesca on my mind. I continued on to Takradi with no idea where I would stay that evening. I was going through my guidebook for hotels when I struck up a conversation with a young lady sitting next to me. She recommended that I stay at the Rabow hotel where she and her uncle was staying. When we arrived in Takoradi, I was wary of the quality of a hotel a Ghanian local would be staying. I paid for the cab to drive me down to the end of a dirt road to the Raybow resort and was surprised that it was a 3-4 star resort.

After checking in,at 10:30 pm. I walked to the other end of the dirt road to a traffic circle to the Office II Bar. It was a small outside bar. I flirted with the waitresses and chatted with the locals.

The next 4 days, I continually contacted Francesca and pepeually arranged meetings. Ghanians have no concept of time. Being late meetings by as much as 7 hrs could be explained by he most primative excuse such as my sister is sick, I had to cook dinner for my mom, etc... These excuses were entered only after an attempt was made to blame mefor her being late. While waiting for her, I was able to visit Market Center and a couple beahes where I met several young ladies I did not pusue in hope to meet with Francesca. It seemed that these ladies are very reserved, never making the first move but, the first possible chance of privacy, they will just be all over you like they've been wanting you more months.

I can recommend that you stay at Africa Beach Hotel. At night there are more women than you can count. I found a bar overlooking the docks called the Stomach Bar where the pros hang out. I waisted too much time waiting for Francesca.

After 4 days, I left Takoradi, tired of being stood up. Too bad, Francesca was so good looking I would've married her, Really! I never slept with her but, whenevr I would give her cab money or money to give her mother. That was always a mistake because she would immediately take off. She just had to spend it and fast. I went back to Accra to the Shangri la hotel.

While in Accra before going to Takoradi, I was secretly getting phone numbers when Anita's watchful eyes were't able to guard me from all the lovely ladies of Accra. I called Gifty who I secrely got a phone number from when Anita was in the ladies room one day. She was happy to see me; I told her almost all about Takoradi. She came over to my hotel immediately, pointing out that she would never be late like Francesca was. Gifty was thin, muscular, and has the roundest, shapely butt I've seen. I spent my last day with her and gave her money that I planned on spending but, did't need to.

Every puplication I read advised to get away from Accra. Also, I was curious about the stories about Swedru. I believe that Swedru is no different than any other small Ghanian city away from Accra. You don't need to meet a pro to get laid in this country, simply approach almost anyone you want and it is highly likely that she can be yours. I would probably get bored in Ghana quickly but the women were very polite and many were naturally sexy, not wearing much make-up. Also, this travel destination was very different from all others I've ever been. When travelling, I can always count on finding a fellow traveller at a bar or hotel who, like myself, travels alone and we can swap stories and advice. In Ghana, everybody mistrusted everybody; everybody kept you at arm's length; and most of all, everybody lied for no reason whatsoever.

I wrote a very similar report on another site.

The hotel Paloma is not bad. The restaurant is better (may be they put pepper too much)

If you want to stay nearby makumba (Osu) go to :

EL ELYON

60-80 dollars.

Very quiet and central large rooms, good aircondotionning TV SAT, bathroom with hot water.

Be careful to boys. When they clean the room, they steal your currencies. Put them in closed places.

The receptionnist will try to add the 12,5% VAT to the bill. They can't, the price must be VAT included.

But this hotel as a lot of charm.

Directions:

I just returned from Ghana.

I can see how someone would want to bring someone back home with them. I stayed at Poloma then off to Takoradi. I found a real babe at the SDC bus station then met her in Takoradi later. In Takoradi, the hookers are heavy at Africa Beach Resort. I met only one other American. His name is Judd. He has lived in Ghana for 30 years. I recommend that you stay away from him. He will try to rip you off by selling you some bogus tour or whatever he thinks you may need.
